The crowd immediately erupted into chaos.
Ryan dodged the rolling rocks and rushed out, exchanging a glance with Lyle. The twins' telepathic connection instantly conveyed their meaning.
The two men jumped almost simultaneously into the driver's cab of the nearest armored vehicle and took control of the vehicle.
Their four teammates followed suit.
The six armored vehicles turned around and drove out of the Valley of Death.
The zombie king's evolutionary substance had a fatal attraction to all zombies, and for a moment, the zombies chased after it like madmen.
Clear the area around the stands, now!
Chu Xinxin "went against the current" and leaped towards the zombie king.
Using the nearby rocks, she leaped onto the platform in a few quick movements. With the dark muzzle of her gun pointed at the zombie king, Chu Xinxin pulled the trigger, firing a special bullet loaded with an inhibitor.
The sound of a bullet piercing the barrel echoed through the valley. Just as it was about to hit the zombie king between the eyebrows, he suddenly opened his eyes, immediately flipped backward, and then clung to the ground like a spider to avoid Chu Xinxin's attack.
Alice and David also arrived.
The zombie king's eerie green eyes darkened, and the wooden planks of the observation deck instantly broke open, releasing about ten zombies with equally green eyes.
[Oh no! He's evolved! He's level five now!]
The system's voice was rapid and urgent: [These ten newcomers are only level four; we can't defeat them. Retreat immediately!]
"Too late."
As soon as Chu Xinxin finished speaking, the zombies formed a circle, blocking all their escape routes.
Then they launched a fierce attack.
Alice is no good at close combat; she was scratched on most of her shoulder, with the bone showing.
"Damn it!" David rushed to help, but another zombie attacked.
Thirty-odd people were fighting against ten level-four zombies, and the situation was almost one-sided!
Chu Xinxin used her speed to dodge the attacks, but she was getting further and further away from the zombie king.
"System! How much longer?!"
Chu Xinxin witnessed a superhuman being pierced through the chest by a zombie's palm strike, and her long-suppressed anger instantly boiled over.
[It will take time!]
The system shouted: "But my sisters are already level four! Even if you crack the Zombie King's command conversion rate, you still can't control them!"
Their intelligence is no less than that of humans!
"Is there any way to enhance or strengthen the abilities of all superhumans?"
Another superhuman was thrown high into the sky, his head smashed by a zombie's palm.
Blood splattered everywhere, landing on Chu Xinxin's face and staining her vision red.
With such a disparity in strength, Chu Xinxin knew this would be a fierce battle, but she hadn't expected it to be this difficult.
Almost everyone had injuries.
[You only have enough energy left to enhance a portion of the population!]
"Use it first!"
The system upgraded all offensive abilities, and the situation was finally not one-sided.
The frequency conversion is also completed at the same time.
Seizing the opportunity, Chu Xinxin said to the zombie attacking her, "Stop!"
The zombie thought it was a command from the king, and its attacking momentum faltered.
Chu Xinxin's inhibitor arrived in an instant!
By the time the zombies realized they had been tricked, the inhibitors had already entered their bodies.
"Alice, I'm leaving her to you!"
Chu Xinxin handed the slow-moving zombie to Alice, who had "restored" her powers, changed her weapon, and jumped onto the observation deck from the side.
"I recognize you."
She had barely steadied herself when the Zombie King appeared before her in the blink of an eye.
That speed!
If the zombie king had tried to kill her, she would be dead now!
Chu Xinxin suppressed the fear in her heart: "What do you want to do?"
The zombie king, with its green eyes, seemed to move slightly, its voice laced with sarcasm: "You were the ones who barged in first, and now you ask me what I want to do?"
"If that's the case, then the zombies were the ones who started the killings."
Upon hearing this, the Zombie King grinned and smiled silently, his expression eerily like that of a demon from hell.
"Didn't you humans create us just to kill people?"
Chu Xinxin's brow twitched involuntarily a few times: "What do you mean?"
The zombie king did not answer.
"When you were at Holy Light Hospital... were you a human, or a zombie?"
"He's human, and he's also a zombie..."
In the middle of the transformation between humans and zombies...
"And what did you mean by the note you wrote to me?"
Chu Xinxin secretly gripped the suppressant gun behind her back with her right hand.
“I didn’t write it. The person who wrote it for you… is already dead.” The Zombie King’s gaze fell on Chu Xinxin’s hidden right hand. “The inhibitors are useless to me.”
"Whether it works or not, we'll find out by trying it!"
Chu Xinxin leaped forward and pulled the trigger at the same time. The zombie king retreated to the side and did not engage.
His evolution is still unstable; we can't attack head-on. Hurry up!
The system detected the zombie king's situation the instant Chu Xinxin approached.
[Weak point is on the side of the neck!]
Chu Xinxin changed her strategy and switched to a different dagger.
However, she lacked practical experience and repeatedly failed, with her dagger ultimately embedding itself in the wooden plank of the observation deck.
Chu Xin was about to pull it out when the Zombie King flashed and was already behind her.
[Holy crap, watch out!]
Just before the zombie king's long, gnarled hand was about to grab Chu Xinxin's nape, Si Beiting moved.
His figure was like a phantom, faster than the Zombie King and lighter than Chu Xinxin. He drifted to the left side of the Zombie King like smoke and stabbed fiercely at the Zombie King's neck!
The zombie king abandoned Chu Xinxin, turned around and struck Si Beiting with a palm, slamming Si Beiting heavily into the mountainside.
The zombie king tried to press his advantage, but was shot three times in the waist and abdomen.
Chu Xinxin actually took advantage of his inattention and injected all the remaining inhibitors into his body.
This inhibitor, enhanced by Chu Xinxin, is significantly stronger than the one from Shengguang Hospital.
With the zombie king's movements restricted, Chu Xinxin broke free from his grasp.
Si Beiting came to her side and stood beside her.
"Are you alright?" Chu Xinxin glanced at Si Beiting.
The protective shield the system gave him was indeed very strong; despite the intensity of the attack, Si Beiting only ended up with some dust on his body.
"Thank goodness." Si Beiting drew his gun from his waist. "Help me kill him!"
Before Chu Xinxin could agree, a shrill voice rang out.
The Zombie King roared to the sky, its voice penetrating and seemingly containing a mental attack. The superhumans immediately suffered splitting headaches and collapsed to the ground in agony, losing their ability to attack.
After they caught their breath, they discovered that the Zombie King had led the remaining three zombies and fled towards the City of Death.
"We can still fight! Let's chase them together!"
Si Beiting's eyes were filled with apprehension. The zombie king's strength far exceeded his imagination, and their evolution speed was simply too fast.
If they can't destroy it completely today, they'll be facing not just one zombie king, but tens of thousands, even thousands!
Without saying a word, Chu Xinxin followed closely behind Si Beiting.
The group entered the city of the dead.
The city of death, where sunlight cannot penetrate, is shrouded in a gray haze.
The tall buildings are so high that you can't see the top.
Below, bones lay scattered everywhere, and the entire city was so quiet you could hear someone's heartbeat.
Si Beiting and Chu Xinxin followed the zombie king, gradually distancing themselves from the others.
In the end, only David caught up.
"Boss, stop chasing them. Even if we catch up, the three of us can't handle them."
"You and Professor Chu go back first."
Si Beiting turned around and gave an order, then sped up to chase after them.
Chu Xinxin ignored him and followed behind him.
"Birds of a feather flock together, why won't you listen to advice!"
David, a single guy, had no choice but to follow along.
Sister, David is right, let's go back quickly.
The system's detection range has shrunk again.
"He's been given an inhibitor; he can't go far. As long as we deal with those three level-four zombies..."
[Only Si Beiting is capable of fighting; you and David would only be a burden!]
The system panicked: "Don't distract him."
Chu Xinxin stopped walking, not because of what the system said, but because Si Beiting in front of her had also stopped.
The zombie king stood not far away, watching them.
More zombies surrounded them.
I've been scammed!
The zombie king moved freely, completely unaffected by the suppressant.
He gave a triumphant smile and said slowly, "General, welcome home."
